Is Patrick Jane confronting a possible real psychic in The Mentalist - Byzantium? A young man claiming to have psychic powers offers his help to the FBI in solving a pair of murders, but when he leads them to additional victims, Jane and the team begin to suspect that he is in fact the killer they’re hunting.
There's no such things as psychic. If there's one thing no one can't forget is this Jane's line. He used to be a con man, acting like a psychic, just to cheat, tangle and bribe people, but this attitude caused him to lose his family. Gabriel, the fake psychic here, is acting like Jane used to, even tho he's a bit odd and weird - look at his outfit, so out of that place, pretending to be someone he's not. After all, everybody lies. However, when Gabriel collapsed and Wylie went to help him, I had a thrill when he said Michelle is ok, even without mentioning her name.
The case of the week was a bit bloody and creepy. We all know what's going to happen, but have you ever watched Zodiac, the 2007 movie with Robert Downey Jr and Mark Ruffalo? Well, the murder in the opening scene reminds me that. The Zodiac killed couple in that way. Also, Gabriel found hang up was really creepy and intense. Like in a horror movie perhaps.
Jane & Lisbon reunited in this episode. He has been spending his days alone in the airstream, and Lisbon had to get him arrested to make him come back to work. I was expecting Lisbon to be more mad at him, but I admit, the scene in which she mentioned the times she tried to call him made me laugh. "The third time I thought he's dead." I also guess, those two don't need to fight anymore because it only takes one look into each other's eyes to feel safe and a home. Anyway, Jane needed some time to think about what he did and he DID think about indeed. The way he found himself awake in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by some green, ducks and a little house, have all those elements make him think about what's next move for he and Teresa?
Honorable mention to Cho have Lisbon's back when he offers to call Jane.
Next week it's the series finale for The Mentalist. Despite the wedding we all know it's going to happen, what's next for Jane and Lisbon? How about the new serial killer coming?
